Harleen Singh


Harleen Singh is on the Board of Surge and has served as the Director of Community Outreach for nearly 3 years. She was born and raised in Illinois, and recognizes that people living in this part of the world often take clean, fresh water for granted. This realization combined with her understanding that the global water crisis affects billions daily is what has ignited Harleen’s passion for the cause.  She actively works to engage members of the community and has played multiple leadership roles at Surge such as directing the Host Committee for signature events, co-chairing the Annual Fall Event, recruiting volunteers, and chairing the Fundraising committee. Harleen has a Bachelors in Finance from DePaul University and a Masters in Business Administration from North Central College.  She currently works as a Project Accountant for Hines, an international Real Estate firm in Chicago. 


Surge is a global nonprofit organization that brings life-sustaining water to those most in need, while increasing awareness of this global crisis. Since its inception in 2008, Surge has provided clean water access to over 90,000 people in 9 countries while providing critical education on water management, sanitation and hygiene to thousands more.
